Human sciences manufacturers are under incredible scrutiny from government agencies as well as the public interest organizations. Pressure has never been higher to require a practical guarantee that your products meet or exceed specification. Alarm management tools can help protect batch quality and accelerate the process of a variance or incident review to get you back into production as quickly as possible.

Let us introduce you to the world of alarm management. We start simply, by beginning to inventory your alarm problem. The information is captured into a database that will help you to be able to identify problems and possible corrective actions before doing more serious analysis. This part of the process is incredibly inexpensive. LogMate is used at over 1000 sites worldwide. It is field-proven, secure, and reliable.

The LogMate TRAC module merges the collected alarm and event data with process data from a historian. From a single screen you can see alarm trips, operator actions, and the actual instrument readings from the same unit. TRAC can also be used as an alarm performance dashboard, helping you track ongoing alarm rates and progress in resolving operations issues.

Our ACE package allows you to quantify just how bad your problem is, and begin to reduce the most problematic nuisance alarms. When you start to understand and fix alarm issues, you'll want to make use of the AlarmKB to start documenting changes to the alarm system, using it as a Management of Change (MOC) platform to help you to sustain the benefits of a more balanced alarm design.

LogMate AMS is designed with consideration of Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). Our packages are built on a Microsoft® .NET ASP® architecture that ensures a lower cost of installation and maintenance. The true thin-client interface makes desktop upgrades a thing of the past.

Are you ready to get started? Let's map out a solution that fits your needs and capabilities. The key is to get started, and to begin inventorying the alarm data which flows to your operators' workspace every minute. Alarm management is what we do, and we're the best at it. We've been helping people just like you solve problems just like this since 1990.
